Paco Rabanne Olympea Eau de Parfum 15ml Spray Lulu Castagnette Citrus and spice open sharp

Citrus and spice open sharp — lemon and cinnamon that don't apologise — then settle into a woody-amber base where cedar and sandalwood do most of the work

then settle into a woody base where cedar and vetiver do most of the talking

almost papery

Paco Rabanne Olympea Eau de Parfum 15ml Spray Lulu Castagnette Citrus and spice open sharpCoconut, ambroxan, and salt that sunlit, almost mineral quality that smells like sunscreen and sea air without being salty in the literal way. Olympea opens bright, then settles into something warmer and skin close by the dry down. 15ml spray bottle, so it's a handbag refill or the travel version of the full size. Two or three spritzes from skin; it reads as a skin scent rather than projection, so let people get within a metre to notice it.
